A thread on the violence at Columbia University. 🧵

Anyone calling these “peaceful protestors” is deliberately lying. You can’t rewrite reality when it’s all caught on video. Image Here’s a Columbia janitor pleading with pro-terror students, led by Mahmoud Khalil, to let him leave.

They held him hostage—he’s now suing the university. Image

BREAKING: The Middlebury College commencement speaker, wearing a terror scarf, breaks down over Trump’s victory before attacking the school and urging the parents and students trying to celebrate graduation not to donate to the school.

Wokeism is a mental illness. Graduation is meant to be a time to celebrate the graduating class’ accomplishments, not go on a rant. I am honestly confused why the school let her give the speech.

BREAKING: Fully masked terror-supporting students broke into a Columbia University class of Jewish students and began handing fliers of Jewish stars burning with "Curse Zionism" written.

Columbia should lose its accreditation and federal funding immediately. Enough of this! I rarely curse on this platform, but what the actual fuck. How the hell is this allowed? Why are my tax dollars going to Columbia? Image

This passport has been trending on pro-Palestinian twitter as some sort of "vindication" that a sovereign Arab Palestinian state exists.

Here is a thread about how this passport is one of the best sources to show that "Palestine" was always viewed as the Jewish homeland. 🧵 Image First of all, the passport's primary language is English, hence the land was the "British Mandate of Palestine."

There was never a sovereign nation of Palestine.

I've lightly commented on Biden's policies, but how is no one discussing how the media's referenced report accusing Israel of violating international law was a complete kangaroo court. 🧵

This report was decided before it was even investigated. The task force is described as "unaffiliated experts" but the "experts are all well-known antisemites. Image

Hey @penn I saved you some time on who among your faculty encourages the behavior that we witnessed for the past two weeks on campus and now entered the President's residence...

Our students will continue to be radicalized until the faculty are held accountable. 🧵 Huda Fakhreddeine

We filed a lawsuit against @penn back in the fall of 2023. Since then, the school has only continued to prove their inability to uphold Title VI.

If the school won’t uphold the law, the courts will.

On Friday, I filed my declaration to the court. Including it in the 🧵below 1. I am a Jewish student at the University of Pennsylvania (“Penn”). I am a citizen of the United States and of Israel. I am a plaintiff in this action and I am also a member of plaintiff Students Against Antisemitism, Inc. I submit this declaration in opposition to defendant’s motion to dismiss and to strike.
2. The antisemitism I have experienced at Penn has been severe and has only gotten worse since the amended complaint in this action was filed on March 4, 2024. Disruptive protests that exceed the permitted decibel level have become the norm, with students and professors alike chanting slogans like “there is only one solution, Intifada revolution.” Penn professors, such as Anne Norton, who recently expressed her view that “Zionists will destroy every liberal institution– rule of law, fair process, free speech, human rights – to suppress expressions of Palestinian humanity,” have made me a public target of their hate and lies. I have received death threats. The administration does not take Jewish students’ safety concerns seriously, and it does not take my
safety concerns seriously.
3. On November 7, at a meeting with John Ghazvinian, the executive director of Penn’s Middle East Center, concerning my honors thesis paper, Ghazvinian told me that some members of the Middle East Studies department sought to falsely report me to both the Philadelphia Police for inciting violence, and to the Penn administration for violating school policies, based on an email I sent to multiple administrators and department heads, which attached a petition signed by over 200 Jewish Penn students’ expressing concerns over their safety and Penn’s endorsement of the Palestine Writes Literature Festival. Mr. Ghazvinian cautioned me, as someone looking to pursue a career in diplomacy, to think carefully when communicating with these professors and administrators, which I understood as a reference to the power they had to negatively impact my career prospects.
4. After I filed this action, a group of Penn professors filed a separate lawsuit against Penn claiming, among other things, that I along with the other student plaintiffs in this action have joined efforts with “billionaire donors, pro-Israel groups, [] and segments of the media” to promote a new advent of “McCarthyism.” See Fakhreddine et al v. The University of Pennsylvania, 2:24-cv-01034-MSG (ECF 1). Although I have no affiliation with Penn other than being an undergraduate student there, the professors’ complaint names me over seventeen times and contains several false allegations against me, including that I gave Congressman Joe Wilson “doxxing ‘information’” that he used to question Penn’s former president Elizabeth Magill about antisemitism on Penn’s campus. I never handed any doxxing information about Fakhreddine to Wilson. These professors’ gratuitous use of my name in a complaint against their employer plainly is nothing more than an effort to retaliate against and intimidate me following my decision to file this civil rights lawsuit against Penn.

Because @penn refuses to hold their professors accountable when they consistently espouse vile anti-Semitism. I will allow the court of public opinion to hold Prof. Anne Norton accountable.

To any future student @penn, unless you are anti-Semitic, avoid her class. 🧵 this Image

In light of @penn releasing their first statement in 11 days, I would like to provide a thread as to the level of danger students are subjected to.

Considering what is below, you'd think @penn would do something.

Here are just but a few of the documented cases 🧵 Jewish student violently harassed

The ongoing chaos @penn is preventable if there was anyone in the administration who could begin by prioritizing the safety of their students over appeasing those who have openly chanted in support of terror organizations. 🧵 Penn president last friday released a statement to the Penn community whereby he stated in no uncertain terms: “The encampment itself violates the University’s facilities policies. The harassing and intimidating comments and actions by some of the protesters..."

What exactly are we waiting for? 🧵 We see images emerging daily of these encampments becoming more violent. They express more support for terror organizations that call for the destruction of the United States.

For anyone who says it’s safe… this is Penn’s campus over the past 4 days. There are countless other examples from Penn.

This is also only one school, other universities have plenty more footage. 🧵 UPENN Sidechat

To every American, as a college student, I am telling you that we are not safe. Not just Jews, but every student on campus. These encampments are increasingly getting more violent and displaying more imagery and support of terrorist organizations.

I say none of this lightly. I implore every decent human to urge their representatives to speak up about this. This is not a right or left issue. This is a safety issue. For all of our students. It is time for us to wake up and smell the roses.
